Blueberry Bundt Cake

Sunday, January 27, 2013

On our way to Sur Le Tab on Saturday, Diane and I stopped by an estate sale. They make me sad, because usually it means someone has either died or had to move to a nursing home. Among the many items there, I found a small cheesecake pan, that had an optional bottom which had a fairly simple, but pretty design. You can’t see it in the photo, but we used it. I hope they know I am using it and love it!

Frosting * I used a small amount of blueberries, powdered sugar and milk and mixed together in a magic bullet.

I was not completely satisfied with this, so I made another consisting of 3 tbsp cream cheese, 3 tbsp of powdered sugar, and several tablespoons of contreau – which is an orange flavored liquor. This made me happy.
